Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

Chapter 142: Chapter 107 Intelligence Update and Three Knives Six Holes

A night of wind and rain brought two tears, baring one’s heart deepened emotions further.

In the morning, Chen Jie got up and looked at his wife lying beside him, his heart filled with endless compassion.

*He wondered if the past wounds had caused her to maintain a defensive attitude towards the world.*

It made her always curl up when she slept, curling herself into a ball.

As if trying to retreat into a shell.

Chen Jie got up, now it was just the break of dawn.

Other families might still be sleeping, but Chen Jie was already awake, ready to stretch his muscles. Reaching the Refining Body Realm and defeating Yu Biao was not the end, but a new beginning.

The world was vast.

If the world were likened to a game, then the current Chen Jie might not have even left the novice village.

As soon as Chen Jie moved, Su Yunjin woke up, her sleepy eyes opening.

”Did I wake you up? Sleep a little longer.”

Su Yunjin got up, looked at the time, and said, ”So early, husband?”

”Practicing some moves.”

His wife didn’t ask further, nodded, and dragged her slightly tired body to make breakfast for her husband.

Chen Jie said, ”No rush, I estimate I’ll practice for a couple of hours, you sleep a bit longer.”

With that, Chen Jie dressed and went out.

Su Yunjin stayed in the outer room instead of continuing to sleep, removed the chair blocking the inner room door, and entered the inner room. There, Ruirui had kicked off the covers, lying sprawled on the bed, sleeping soundly.

Kids are blessed, carefree and without worries.

Covering her little sister again, she sat by the bed and began practicing breathing according to the Yang Chun Skill’s Breathing Method.

She didn’t understand martial arts, thus only knew the Breathing Method. Now she found herself becoming more proficient and had her interpretations of this method.

*She even practiced unconsciously while working, yet unfortunately, during sleep, without realizing it, the Breathing Method wasn’t smooth. How great it would be if she could practice while sleeping!*

So, she guarded her little sister and practiced her Breathing Method.

Meanwhile, outside, Chen Jie was practicing the Water Manipulation Palm; martial arts required daily practice.

There’s a saying: fists never leave the hand, songs never leave the mouth; a day without practice leads to rusty hands for three days, a year without practice, rusty hands for ten years!

Thus diligence is a must-learn course for everyone training in martial arts.

While practicing, Chen Jie also opened yesterday’s intelligence panel.

Yesterday, when the intelligence got updated, Chen Jie was learning poems with Su Yunjin, like Chen Qingquan learning a foreign language, very seriously, so he hadn’t taken a look.

This morning, he checked the intelligence from yesterday.

[Today’s Intelligence Updated (Level 2)]

[1. Yesterday, you killed Yu Biao and obtained intelligence. Yu Biao was a disciple of Gu Qingshan, who was Gu Qingfeng’s older brother. The brothers had a good relationship, but Gu Qingshan fell gravely ill due to past events and died suddenly.]

[2. You met Yu Biao’s housekeeper yesterday, obtaining intelligence. Yu Biao’s housekeeper was highly valued by Yu Biao and had deep feelings for him. After you killed his master, this man harbored deep resentment towards you...]

[3. You drank with Peng Shizhong yesterday and obtained intelligence. Peng Shizhong was the Guild Leader of the Fishing Guild and Nan Batian’s senior. The two studied under the previous Guild Leader of the Fishing Guild and each learned a Divine Technique. Later, due to the Guild Leader position, their relationship soured, as hostile as fire and water, yet they maintained a superficial peace, like an undercurrent, dangerous!]

[4. Yesterday, you met Zheng Chuan and obtained intelligence. Zheng Chuan was the brother-in-law of the Big Ship Leader Zhao Xun. Due to you winning the Village Chief battle, Zheng Chuan, under pressure, secretly detained Zhao Xun at the fishery, preparing to carry out the Fishing Guild’s rules!]

[5. Because you thought about Yihong House multiple times yesterday, you obtained intelligence. Yihong House was built with investments from mysterious benefactors, and the Mianshui County Magistrate held a twenty percent share. It was the first gold-spending cave in Mianshui County with four Great Courtesans of Chun, Xia, Qiu, and Dong seasons—each with different specialties and undoubtedly the prime choice for learning poetry!]

Chen Jie paused his martial arts practice abruptly when he saw the intelligence content, a look of shame and anger crossing his face.

*What did the fifth piece of intelligence mean? What did it mean that I thought of Yihong House multiple times yesterday? According to the intelligence system, once it reached Level 2, the fifth piece could show what I most wanted to know, so what was the meaning of showing me this kind of intelligence?*

*What did it mean? Are you saying I was thinking about Yihong House? I’m telling you, I wasn’t. System, you’re slandering me, you’re defaming me!*

However, this Yihong House seemed to have strong backing, even with the County Magistrate holding a twenty percent share. No wonder it was so prominent. Actually, considering it, in the past life, those in the entertainment venues also had both black and white connections, right?

Without greasing the right palms, you wouldn’t run the place well.

In the other pieces of intelligence, the first and second pointed out that after Yu Biao was killed by him, the Guild Cao people hated him, the most important being that Gu Qingfeng.

But Chen Jie didn’t fear much. What of Gu Qingfeng?

*He had killed Yu Biao in a fair fight at the arena, according to Mianshui County’s rules. Even if Gu Qingfeng wanted to make a move, he had to hold back.*

*For a great Protector of the Thirteen Grand Protectors to act against him, what would it look like if it got out? If senior figures dealt with the younger generation of Jianghu, then the Hall Masters of the Fishing Guild could also step in against the Guild Cao juniors.*

*How could these unformed juniors withstand the pursuit of these senior figures? In the end, it would just deplete the talents of both factions, being replaced by other guilds.*

*Don’t underestimate other guilds. Although in Mianshui County, Guild Cao and the Fishing Guild were dominant, in the cracks, other small sects still sought survival.*
